Background
Plumb was one of the first wave of new children born in New Pelham. She has heard stories of the Old Pelham Lands and rivalries with the Bowery Brood and South Ferry Fishers while growing up. As a young mutant she possessed incredible strength, which would serve her well as joining the maintenance crew of New Pelham. When she was old enough, her latent mutant abilities of Machine Mending manifested.
New Pelham
[[File:Plumb02.jpg|left|400px|In her cardboard home in New Pelham| thumbnail] The Pelham Clan and New Pelham are descendents of mutant tribes living under New York City. The mutants date back to at least the late 1800s when they were part of the New York City sewer system, and then migrated into the underworld of the Subway transit system in the early 1900s. The mutants call themselves "The Brood", and no matter which tribe they are from, they all seem to share a common bond. In the late 1980s, territorial issues arose underground, and the Pelham Clan took the opportunity to migrate west to live under Detroit after the Battle of Detroit in 1992. The rebuilding opportunities above, along with an extensive underground infrastructure gave the Pelham Clan an opportunity to prosper. Scavenged materials from construction sites above and from the aftermath of the battle have given New Pelham a surprisingly high level of technology for their underground lair.
New Pelham is a work in progress, with nearly two dozen mutants living in harmony below the surface. Several homeless and curious humans also live in New Pelham, though they are sworn to secrecy on its location and vetted by Clan members. The city is a modest, comprising nearly a square kilometer of piping, housing, tunnels, and living area.
Life in New Pelham consists of film, music, dancing, construction and maintenance. All mutants are well versed in maintaining their small city. Stolen cable feeds entertainment to the community and even rudimentary Network access is available.
